Chapter 212: 212 feeding kills to the enemy? Chapter 212: 212 feeding kills to the enemy? Shi Lan was momentarily stunned, then suddenly flipped over and pinned Yan Shixiu down, saying, “President Yan, kissing doesn’t require much effort.”
Delighted by the young lady’s initiative, Yan Shixiu’s face drew closer to Shi Lan’s nose, and he tenderly closed his eyes.
Although it was late at night, ambiguous sounds sporadically emanated from the bedroom, but in the end, the two simply held each other and slept, considering it a form of recharging.
The next day, under pressure from netizens, Yilong Technology finally caved and announced that Vice President Qin would publicly apologize to Shi Lan.
A public apology, not a face-to-face one—isn’t that just brushing it off?
But it doesn’t matter.
That afternoon, Yilong held a press conference that no one was informed about in advance, and it was unclear which media channels were invited. They awkwardly bombarded Vice President Qin, who clearly did not sincerely regret his errors; he had not memorized the script well, stumbling several times during the process, almost making the young lady feel nauseated.
He was demoted and had apologized.
Yilong thought, surely Shi Lan would be satisfied this time?
@An Lan: “I saw the apology, but I don’t accept it. If Vice President Qin finds it so hard to apologize and doesn’t want to sincerely, then expect a lawyer’s letter. You should like that.”
Upon seeing Shi Lan’s post on Weibo, Yilong and Vice President Qin were nearly driven mad. Why wasn’t she satisfied with anything? Couldn’t she just sue earlier? Why wait until after Vice President Qin made a fool of himself before deciding to seek legal action, isn’t that too unforgiving?
Shi Lan wanted to be difficult this time; she needed everyone to know that even though her status was low-tier, her tenacity was top-tier!
This time, Yilong, having ‘tolerated’ enough, finally lost patience. The executives directly told Vice President Qin, “Don’t bother with her anymore. We’ve done what we had to do. This girl is way over the top and gives no one a way out. Such a narrow-sighted, petty person from the lower echelons just doesn’t see the bigger picture.”
Their plan was to sweep the issue under the rug, protecting Vice President Qin to the end.
But, is this what they call not giving a way out?
Where is the logic in that?
After Shi Lan spoke out, Yilong ceased to make any moves, adopting a major company’s attitude, implying they were done appeasing her because appeasement just wouldn’t work. Moreover, Yilong’s executives planned to spend some money to contact Huahai and let a professional entertainment company smooth things over, to prevent Shi Lan from haunting them like a persistent ghost.
The thought might have been good, but… coincidentally, Huahai’s new CEO, Yan Shixiu, happened to be the big boss’s ex-husband and current boyfriend?
Shi Lan was quite stubborn, earning the envy of many artists in the industry. Although some still scornfully believed that Shi Lan would ultimately suffer a significant loss, her approach of speaking and acting boldly aligns with what most artists aspire to be.
Shi Lan’s fan base was also growing, despite her reluctance to organize an official fan club. However, An Lan’s true fans still hoped she would manage her career seriously like other artists because becoming highly popular in the circle is the way out. They all wanted Shi Lan to stand in the most glorious spot, no longer subjected to any bullying. But to the big boss, these ideas were downright absurd. After all, looking at Gu Chengyu and Chen Beini, weren’t they overturned by powerful figures in the end?
That afternoon, Yilong Technology’s call came through to Huahai’s president’s office, hoping to have a meeting with President Yan.
Yan Shixiu sat in his office chair, a smirk across his face: “Are they handing us an easy score?”
“President, should we meet? You’re so busy, do you have the time?” the assistant asked.
“Meet, and tell An Lan to join us.”
Luckily, the Madam’s “hit-and-run” theory used in various situations became the best excuse he could use to openly protect the young lady.
